JAM SLAMMERS at Bender Park!

  Milwaukee Conservation Leadership Corps is that serves the Milwaukee County Parks and other environmental organizations in the county. My crew and I are working at Bender Park located in Oak Creek, Wisconsin.

  Bender Park is arguably the most beautiful park to work at while working for MCLC. Bender is right on Michigan Lake and has a popular marina where boats come in and out of the lake all day. Although Bender is well-maintained, there were still a few things MCLC had to take to take care of.


While stationed at Bender we had the following tasks:
• Removal invasive species
• Clear a brush line to restore a prairie
• Making new trails
• Closing off social trails (Trails that were visitors made themselves)
• Clearing invasive cattails
• Assist park staff in maintaining beach area
• Re-cement campground grills

& of course have a great time!
